Carter suit
probes new
press issues
Do gossip columns get
1st amendment shield?
New York Times
NEW YORK - The dispute be-tween
former President Jimmy Car-ter
and The Washington Post over a
gossip column item raises basic, in-tertwined
questions of law and jour-nalistic
practice, according to press
lawyers, editors and writers.
The legal questions which arise
because Carter says he intends to
sue The Post for libel over the item
involve such developing areas of
press law as a newspaper's role in
simply passing on wliat others say
without regard to whether the
statements are true. The journalism
issues include when it is appropriate
to print " rumors" and whether they
must be checked as thoroughly as
other news reports.
But the basic question the dispute
Insight
poses for editors, one that rarely
arises in routine news coverage, is
this: If you believe a report is not
true, should you publish it?
The controversy arose over an
item published Oct. 5 in " The Ear,"
a column that appears four times a
week on the Style page of The Post.
It reported that " word's around
among Rcsalynn's close pals" that
the Carters knew, because Blair
House had been " bugged" and Mrs.
Reagan's conversation with an inte-rior
decorator had been overheard,
that Mrs. Reagan wanted them to
move out of the White House before
Reagan was inaugurated.
Carter demanded a retraction and
an apology. The Post said it stood be-hind
the report, and Diana McClel- la- n,
the " Ear" columnist, said the
Carters " know perfectly well it is
true."
On Wednesday, however. The Post
printed an editorial that made a dis-tinction
between, on the one hand,
reporting the rumor's existence
" a tale was circulating and being
given currency by estimable public
figures who repeat it" and, on the
other hand, believing the tale itself.
Carter, the editorial said, coura-geously
refused to stoop to bugging
and taping while he was president.
" Based on everything we know of
the Carter instinct and record on this
subject," it said, " we find that ru-mor
utterly impossible to believe."

A statesman? a soldier j
Dayan's death shocks
griefHstricken Mideast
TEL AVTV, Israel ( UPI) Moshe Dayan,
the soldier- statesma- n whose defiant pride
and famous eye patch made him a symbol of
Israel to the world, died of heart failure Fri-day
night. He was 66.
Dayan, who led the Israeli army to victory
in the 1967 Six- Da- y War and helped forge the
Camp David peace agreement with Egypt,
died in Tel Aviv's Tel Hashomer hospital at
8.30 p. m., his daughter Yael said.
He had been admitted to the hospital the
night before, complaining of chest pains and
difficulty in breathing.
The death of Dayan, Israel's foreign min-ister
until October 1979 and still a member of
the Knesset, took the Israelis completely by
surprise. The nation is still shaken by the as-sassination
10 days earlier of Egyptian Presi-dent
Anwar Sadat. t Israeli radio said Dayan would have a state
funeral, with the date yet to be set.
Dayan had been in poor health since an op-eration
for intestinal cancer in June 1979.
Apparently he was not suffering from a heart
attack when he was admitted to the intensive
cardiac care unit of the hospital after dinner
Thursday night.
According to a friend, Dayan once said he
knew he was " loved, admired and hated by
the people" but hoped that when he died peo-ple
would remember his " contribution to the
j modern history of the state of Israel. "
Born a native Palestinian, Moshe Dayan
fought in all of Israel's four wars. He became
a national hero in one of them by leading Is-raeli
forces to victory in just six days in June
of 1967.
He came under intense criticism in 1973
when, as defense minister, he was one of
those blamed for Israel's unpreparedness for
the Arab attack that launched the Yom Kip- p- ur
war a conflict that ironically helped
the way for Sadat's 1977 peace initia- v- e.
Save
Dayan participated in that campaign too,
helping to negotiate the Camp David accords
as foreign minister in Prime Minister Menac- he- m
Begin's first cabinet. He resigned in 1979
to protest Begin's settlement policies in the
occupied Arab territories.
When he was appointed to that post after
defecting from the Labor Party, parents of
soldiers k'lled in the 1973 war took to the
streets in protest, claiming he was not fit to
serve.
But to most Israelis and more so to the
world Moshe Dayan and his distinctive eye
patch continued to represent the spirit of the
repatriated Jewish people defiant, proud
and straight- talkin- g.
Naphtalie Lavie, Israeli consul general in
New York, called Dayan a man who was at
once " pessimistic but realistic."

Egypt arrests 1,500 for subversive aims
CAIRO, Egypt ( UPI) --- In a new crackdown
by President Hosni Mubarak, more than 1,500
religious extremists and suspected agitators
have been arrested in the 10 days since Presi-dent
Anwar Sadat's assassination, sources
close to the government said Friday.
Those arrested were among nearly 8,000
Moslem fundamentalists and others suspected
of subversive aims who were named in a list
Sadat talked about before he died. Many more
arrests are predicted.
Mubarak made no mention of the crackdown
or of escalating tensions between neighboring
ally Sudan and enemy Libya. But in a tele-gram
to President Reagan, he said he antic-ipated
closer relations with the United States.
In a crackdown Sept. 4, Sadat put more than
1,500 people behind bars and said his only re-gret
was in not acting sooner.
The brother of a religious fanatic arrested in
the September crackdown led the four- ma- n
squad that killed Sadat and six others during a
military parade Oct. 6.
Mubarak, taking the oath of office Wednes-day,
warned against violence and said the new
government has introduced the death penalty
for anyone using firearms in the course of sub-versive
acts.
Besides imposing a year- lon- g state of emer-gency,
the government also laid down heavy
penalties for those caught harboring fugitives,
concealing information about conspiracies or
wearing unauthorized military uniforms.
The measures clearly were aimed at funda-mentalists
who staged an abortive uprising in
Asyut, south of Cairo, two days after Sadat's
death. At least 44 police were killed, 98 people
" were injured and nine fundamentalists died in
that fighting.

Burger clown dedicates

By Jacqtd Fiels and Anne Vcegtlin

Ronald McDonald was in Colum-bia
Friday, but he wasn't here just to
clown around.
The McDonald's Restaurant me-dia
symbol did clown around when
he visited two wards at Boone Hosp-ital
Center, but he later tended to the
, serious business of dedicating the
site for the Mid- Misso- uri Ronald Mc-- &
Donald House, a place which will i give parents with children in local
H hospitals an alternative to motels.
. About 130 children and adults saw
Wr Ronald and others unveil a sign on
iffethe Monk Drive and Stadium Boule- glvardsi- te.
Friends of KIDS ( Kids with Ill-nesses
and Diseases that are Se-rious),
a local non- prof- it organiza-tion,
will own and oversee the house.
The organization needs to raise
$ 300,090 to complete the project. An-other
$ 50,000 will come from McDo-nald's.
Sherry Glascock, of Rolla, recent-ly
spent a week in a Columbia hotel
at $ 35 a night while her daughter was
treated in University Hospital. She
said the McDonald House will give
parents in a similar situation the
chance to share concern with one an-other.
" The hotel was so impersonal,"
she said. " And being very lonely, I

thinking that your child is in such
bad shape, but when you talk to oth-er
parents and realize they can live
with their children's problems, then
ours are really net so bad."
Dr. Giulio Barbero, chairman of
the child health department at Uni-versity
Hospital, said 80 percent of
patients treated come from outside
Columbia, with 50 to 75 percent com-ing
distances greater than 100 miles.
Besides offering inexpensive
home- lik- e lodging, the house will
provide a central meeting place
where parents can relax, cook, do
laundry and receive emotional sup-port.
Earlier in the day, Ronald McDo-nald
spread his special magic to pa-tients
in another local hospital. At
the Boone Hospital Center, an entou-rage
of nurses and friends scurried
after the clown as he strode through
the pediatric and geriatric wards.
His gigantic red feet and scarlet hair
dominated the scene.
Adam Walker, 9, sat wide- eye- d on
the edge of the bed as Ronald came
into his room. Adam said he was
waiting to go home.
With a few quick twists, Ronald f
turned long, skinny balloons into
plastic dogs and gave one to Adam,
and one to his roommate, Jody Ja-cobs,
8.
The young- at- hea- rt as well as the
young enjoyed Ronald.
" Isn't that a scream?" Mary Hea- le- y,
69, said. " I never saw anything
like it."
